Faeldon son freed; drug case dismissed

The son of Bureau of Corrections chief Nicanor Faeldon, who was arrested last week during a raid in a suspected drug den in Naga City, has been freed, police said on Sunday.

The young Faeldon was released last Friday after the court dismissed the “visitor of a drug den” case police filed against him.

Naga Police Chief Senior Supt. Felix Servita Jr. said the court found no sufficient evidence to prove that the raided house was indeed a drug den.    

Faeldon’s companions Manuel Nebres and Allan Valdez were also released on Friday.

Faeldon Jr. tested negative for drugs. 

The father of Faeldon’s girlfriend, Russel Lanuzo, will still face charges for illegal possession of illegal drugs.
